Product Description
The Kershaw Leek 1660 is a classic Ken Onion-designed everyday-carry knife that combines a slim profile with fast, reliable assisted opening. Its 3-inch Sandvik 14C28N stainless steel blade offers a practical balance of edge retention, toughness, and corrosion resistance.
The stainless steel handle keeps the knife sleek and durable, while Kershaw's SpeedSafe assisted opening allows quick deployment using either the flipper or thumb stud. A frame lock secures the blade during use, and the Tip-Lock Slider helps prevent accidental opening when the knife is closed.
